2023 College Football Coaching Carousel thread

There is something true about creating scarcity. Limiting tickets to a venue makes it more likely people will buy tickets in advance. The old Cleveland Memorial Stadium had 80k seats - you could wait to see how the weather was before deciding whether to go to a Tribe game. Baseball teams have noticed how well the Red Sox do, even in a smaller stadium. It also enhances the game experience. So, in a way - NW is hoping to fill those 35k seats and not worry about the seats they weren't filling regularly anyway.

I really haven't seen a good piece of sports journalism on the economics of things. The Diamond Sports bankruptcy, the Pac-12's demise, NIL, etc. Which is surprising considering how much sports journalism (in whatever form) is out there.

The boomers who've benefitted from supply-side economics are now dumping their fortunes into NIL collectives and university athletic departments.

Brian Kelly's ears just perked up, and he has no idea why.

It will be interesting to see whether Alabama raids the newly vulnerable Michigan roster to fill some recent holes.

it'll only be vulnerable if they make an outside hire. And even then there's only a couple that would be missed.

I would have been worried if I was them had McCarthy come back as a candidate to leave.

I understand this guy's complaint, but coaching has always included much more shirt than teaching football. IMO FBS schools are going to have to create a new football position, a director of personnel, who'd be responsible for NIL and all the stuff that the BC coach couldn't hack. It'd have to be about as well-paid as the coach, maybe more, but it'd be worth it. Raiding the ranks of the big agencies would be fertile recruiting grounds.
